I’ve written a 5 day blood pressure record form for my father. The one that was provided by the doctor wasn’t very intuitive.

I had a camera “front”.
I renamed it in the config to “front1” and added another camera called “front2”.
Once I was happy with my new higher resolution camera, I removed the old one and went back to just one camera in the config called “front”. I think that this caused all my recordings to disappear from disk.
However, the Frigate database seemed to think that they were still there. Deleting them all manually is somewhat tedious (especially because I had 29k of them!). So, I decided to delete them from the sqlite database with a command.
First I installed a sqlite client:
sudo apt install sqlite3
Then I worked out the date timestamp value that I needed by visiting Epoch Converter and picking the date time that I know I made a mess.
Yr Mon Day Hr Min Sec
2023- 6- 29 21 : 0 : 0 GMT
Human date to Timestamp
Epoch timestamp: 1688072400
Timestamp in milliseconds: 1688072400000
Date and time (GMT): Thursday, 29 June 2023 21:00:00
Date and time (your time zone): Thursday, 29 June 2023 22:00:00 GMT+01:00
I then copied the Timestamp in milliseconds into my delete command
$ sudo sqlite3 frigate.db
SQLite version 3.34.1 2021-01-20 14:10:07
Enter “.help” for usage hints.
sqlite> delete from event where start_time <= 1688072400; sqlite> .q
It took a few seconds, but dropped my events from 29k to 71.
There was a requirement for a website on the server to have a case-insensitive.
There is no simple option in nginx to make it case-insensitive, there are also no nested if statements available.
This isn’t easy to achieve, but the below seems to have done it me (for only 1 URI!)
location ~* ^/TNG/$ {
return 301 https://www.theirdomain.co.uk/TNG/index.php;
}
location ~* ^/TNG$ {
return 301 https://www.theirdomain.co.uk/TNG/index.php;
}
set $BOTH "";
# Does the case-insensitive pattern match?
if ( $request_uri ~* ^/TNG/index.php$ )
{
set $BOTH "${BOTH}1";
}
# Is it not an exact match to the correct case?
if ( $request_uri != /TNG/index.php )
{
set $BOTH "${BOTH}2";
}
# If both true, then redirect to the correct case
if ( $BOTH = 12 )
{
return 301 https://www.theirdomain.co.uk/TNG/index.php;
}
Copy your config.bin file to linux then run this command to create a decrypted config.txt :
openssl enc -d -des-ecb -nopad -K 478DA50BF9E3D2CF -in config.bin > config.txt
In the past, I have paid £1000+vat a year for hosting to feed by hosting addiction. This has whittled down in price over the years and now I’m paying just £42 inc vat!
Some good value providers in the UK are 123-reg.co.uk and UK2.net I’ve been with both of them and had a few annoyances (switching my server off | Selling me hosting that was supposed to be maintained, but wasn’t | Me asking them to reboot the host and them saying that it wasn’t where is was supposed to be. Me asking again… them saying it’s still not there and closing the call) over the years, but in all-in-all they’re worth the money.
However, this has become an absolute no-brainer very recently… My new provider charge just £3.50 a month for SSD based VPS (mine feels super fast!) www.vps.net
I have used a reseller account in the past and this had all sorts of features like a system for your users to manage their own accounts and resell too. It all seemed a bit messy to me and eventually I’ve gone for managing it all myself with a few custom written scripts that do things perfectly.
I’ll expand this section as and when.
